It's a Chapter Chat takeover! We're sharing the first episode of the TEA IA/NE Chapter Chat podcast featuring a great discussion about the TEA Annual Awards for Communications Excellence - aka AACE!

Join host Buzz Bites host Emily Burds, who is a member of the Communications Subcommittee for the IA/NE Chapter, as she chats with Cathy Maddox from Commonwealth Electric about the ins and outs of submitting and winning an AACE award.

Cathy is both a former AACE winner and a judge, and she shares her insights into what it takes to win and why it is worth the time for your ESOP to assemble a submission. She passes along her best advice and reminisces on the experience of making it onto the stage in Vegas as a winner.
